Answer:

<em><u>B. Store T sells apples at the lowest rate</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Store R sells apples at $1.20 <u>per pound.</u>

Store S sells <u>4 pounds</u> of apples at $5.00.

Store T sells <u>3 pounds</u> of apples at $3.48.

To find the answer, <u>you have to find the unit price</u> for both Store S and Store T.

For Store S: 4 pounds = $5. <u>Divide the cost by the pounds</u>. This will give us <u>$1.25 per pound.</u>

For Store T: 3 pounds = $3.48. Same thing as Store S, d<u>ivide the cost by the number of pounds</u>. This will give us <u>1.16 per pound</u>.

Now, we know the unit prices for each store. It's time to answer the question.

A. Store R sells apples at the lowest rate.

This is <em><u>incorrect</u></em> because the store that sells the apples at the lowest rate is Store T.

B. Store T sells the apples at the lowest rate.

This answer is <em><u>correct</u></em>, but I'll also take a look at the other two

C. Store S charges a lower rate for apples than Store T.

Again, this is <em><u>incorrect</u></em> because Store T sells apples at the lowest rate.

D. Store T charges the same rate for apples as Store R.

<em><u>Nope</u></em>, Store T sells the apples at a lower rate than Store R.

This means your answer will be <u>B. Store T sells apples at the lowest rate</u>.

The pyramid shown has a square base that is 12 centimeters on each side. The slant height is 18 centimeters. What is the surface
Sav [38]
<span>The <u>correct answer</u> is:

576 sq. cm.

Explanation:

The surface area of a figure is the sum of the areas of the faces of the figure.

The slant height goes from the apex of the pyramid along a face and is perpendicular to the base at the bottom of that face. This gives us 2 measurements of each triangular face of the pyramid: the height (the slant height of the pyramid is the height of the triangular face), 18 cm, and the base <span>of the triangular face, 12 cm.

The formula for the area of a triangle is A = 1/2bh; using our measurements we have:
A = 1/2(12)(18) = 108 sq. cm.

There are 4 triangular faces on a square pyramid, and each will have an area of 108 sq. cm.; this gives us:
4(108) = 432 sq. cm.

The area of the base is given by length times width, or 12*12 = 144 sq. cm.

This gives us a total surface area of 432+144=576 sq. cm.</span></span>

Solve 3x2 + 4x + 2 = 0 by using the Quadratic Formula. If necessary, round to the nearest hundredth.
viva [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For this equation: a=3, b=4, c=2

3x2+4x+2=0

Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=3, b=4, c=2.

x= −b±√b2−4ac / 2a

x= −(4)±√(4)2−4(3)(2)  /  2(3)

x= −4±√−8  /  6

Answer:

No real solutions.

The position equation is s = -16t^2 + vot + so where s is height of the object in feet, vo is the initial velocity of the object
Hunter-Best [27]

A.      For this case, let us set the variables:

s = 0 (final destination on the ground)

t = unknown

vo = 0

so = 8000 ft

Using the equation, we calculate for t:

0 = -16 t^2 + 0t + 8000

t = 22.36 s


B.      For this case:

s = unknown

t = 22.36 s

vo = 600 miles/hr = 880 ft/s

so = 0

Using the equation, we calculate for s:

s = -16*(22.36)^2 + 880*22.36 + 0

s = 11, 677.29 ft = 2.21 miles
